An elderly cricket fan got a special surprise when Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer joined him for a photograph during India's practice session in Mount Maunganui, New Zealand.
The heartwarming interaction took place as India prepared for the fourth ODI against New Zealand. The fan approached the players with a personal request, asking them to recreate a photograph he had taken with Rohit around seven years ago.
This time, however, he wanted Virat and India's current captain Shreyas to join the former India skipper in the picture.
Why did the fan want another photograph with Rohit Sharma?
The supporter had an old photograph with Rohit, taken approximately seven years earlier. Hoping to recreate that memory, he approached the Indian cricketers and requested a new picture featuring Rohit, Virat and Shreyas together.
His request was unusual but meaningful, bringing together memories of the Indian team's past and present leadership.
